I. Barr, Mr., and Mrs. Jesse WEIGH, and
forty or fifty others whose names we do

tuu hlthCooCu tuC "a ILO
palace in the evening. They pronounced
it the finest pyrotechnical display ever
in the Northwest.
Miss Hutchinson, of the Normal school
faculty, attended the bombardment of
the ice palace last night. The rush was
30 great at the Union depot after the ex-
erclses at the grounds, and the trains
were so badly mixed mp, as to make it
almost impossible for people to get the
right train. Miss I'll. was accompanied
to the depot by Guy Baker, and through
an error the lady was placed upon the
Saltwater train instead of the Mankato.
The lady's disappointment and chagrin
may better be imagined than described
when she discovered that she was on the
way to the penitentiary city. We are
pleased to note, however, that Miss
Hutchinson arrived in Mankato to-day
noon, jolly as ever. and full of determin-
alton that she will not attend another
carnival for at least year.
